Welcome back to Rising Tide, the weekly digest of things I’ve discovered or been into this past week and consider worth sharing. Enjoy!
1. Drop the Deepfake is something I recently wrote.
2. Are You a ‘Testosterone’ or a ‘Dopamine?’ Read that article first. Then take this quiz.
My results are as follows:
| Temperament | Associated neurochemicals | Score |
| Curious/Energetic | dopamine, norepinephrine | 32/43 |
| Cautious/Social Norm Compliant | serotonin | 24/43 |
| Analytical/Tough-minded | testosterone | 24/43 |
| Prosocial/Empathetic | estrogen, oxytocin | 31/43 |
3. I have a new rex begonia (still trying to classify it) addition to my work office plants. In doing some research about its care, I came across some cool info: The Fort Worth Botanic Gardens is home to the Begonia Species Bank, a collection of 370 species and 665 hybrids of the begonia! Unbelievable!
4. This quote:
How you climb a mountain is more important than getting to the top.
